  • OrganizationId: set this to the ID associated with your specific Zoho Inventory organization
  • InitiateOAuth: set the to "GETANDREFRESH"
  • AccountsServer (Optional): set this full Account Server URL (only when manually refreshing the OAuth token)

The connectors use OAuth to authenticate with Zoho Inventory. For more information, refer to the Getting Started section of the Help documentation.

You can then follow the steps below to register Zoho Inventory data as a database instance in your project:

  1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
  2. Select Generic ODBC.
  3. Enter a name for the data source and select the DSN.
  4. Finish the wizard to connect to Zoho Inventory data. Zoho Inventory entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.

You can now work with Zoho Inventory data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Zoho Inventory API.
